Mike Pompa's Battle Against Stage 4 Lung Cancer

When life flipped upside down, love stayed right side up.

Mike Pompa—devoted husband, proud dad, talented musician, and constant friend—was recently diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that has spread to his brain. This sudden diagnosis has changed everything for the Pompa family. Mike, known for his warmth, generosity, and soulful tunes, now faces the fight of his life. And he doesn’t have to do it alone.

A routine checkup led to a cascade of medical testing—x-rays, scans, and biopsies—that confirmed the diagnosis. Mike is now receiving world-class care at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Louisiana, where he's staying with Amanda and Jake, who's pursuing his football dreams. The rest of the family—Emily and Titus in Minnesota, Jessy and Matt in Wisconsin—are supporting from afar, bridging the distance with love and prayer.

Mike's treatment involves immunotherapy, chemotherapy, radiation, and systemic therapies—all demanding emotionally, physically, and financially. Time away from work and mounting medical bills have brought an added burden.

This fundraiser will help ease that load and allow Mike to focus fully on healing. Your support directly covers medical costs, travel, lodging, and daily expenses for the Pompas. Each donation brings hope—and each share helps us reach more hearts.

Thank you for lifting the Pompa family with your prayers, generosity, and love.
